Reconciling Saint Sunday *In the News*
Sunday — April 19th — we honored Bishop Melvin Talbert as our “Reconciling Saint.” CWM’s annual Reconciling Saint Sunday celebrates those who advocate for full inclusion of all God’s beloved children.
Bay Windows has a special preview of the event with quotes from Bishop Talbert and Rev. Tiffany Steinwert that speak to the heart of the work and ministry that we lift up on Reconciling Saint Sunday. Click here for the article.
